WHAT SHOULD MR
DO?
HUSTON
Consults The Oregonian as
Possible Libel Suits
to
* H illsboro , Or,, July 12—(To th*-
Editor of The Oregonian.)—I was much
Interested in the discussion between Gov
ernor Geer on one side and The Oregon
ian on the other on the question ol
criticism of public men by the press
And while the criticisms of the press
very often seem utterly unjustifiable,
yet, on the whole, I am inclined to
think with The Oregonian, that it is bet
ter that men be unjustly criticised than
to have the freedom of the press abridg
ed.
My object in writing this communica
tion, however, is to ask The Oregonian's
opinion upon a kindred question. Sup
pose .a newspaper deliberately publishes
falsehoods about a man, whether he be
■e>pvfl>lic or a private citizens, should the
injured party ignore the matter, or
should he invoke the law and cause the
indictment and punishment of the editor?
To put it correctly, during the recent
primary campaign the Salem Journal,
the Tillamook Headlight, and other
papers, published n statement that I ran
for the State Senate in 1900 on a free
silver Democratic ticket, etc , with
many other falsehoods of like character.
The Silverton Appeal published a state
ment that I never stepped inside of a
church, that I never gave a dollar to re
ligious or charity, that I never spoke of
religion except to sneer at it, etc.
These statements were wilful anti de
liberate falsehoods, published with the in
tent and for the express purpose of in
juring inv candidacy. Now, shall I con
sult my own personal comfort and allow
the matter to go by without notice, or is
It my duty, as one who tries to be a
good citizen, to cause the authors of
these statements to be indicted ? It will
do me no good to do so, but is it my
dutv to do this for the protection of
other candidates who may come here
after ?
I confess I am in doubt about it, and
the opinion of The Oregonian, if frankly
given, will probably turn the scale with
S. B. H uston
tician'a lot, at the King of Italy said
when the anarchist hit him with a bomb.
He who endures slander bravely may
live to be glorified by the same tongues
(hat abused him. By the time Mr.
Huston runs tor Congress again the pa
pers which lied about him will probably
have become filled will remorse and
shame, and will be among his most ar
dent supporters ; whereas, should he sue
the editors for libel, thev would lie worse
than ever. Besides, nothing advertises
a newspaper so well as a libel suit, and
if Mr. Huston should sue these editors
he would really be doing them an invol
nntary favor. All the argument seems
to be on one side. Forget the wrong.
It is really worth rememliering ? Any
body can lie. It takes a man to forgive
a liar.
________
As far as the Headlight is concerned, it
published nothing about Mr. Huston
but what it believed to be facts, but it is
(lie same old story, the defeated office
seekers and politicians, as soon as an
election is over, want to take the hide off
somebody, so jump onto the editors,but,
you bet, they never once mention the lies
and libelons statements they make dur
ing the campaign against their political
opponents. There may be a few excep
(ions, and Mr. Huston may be one of
them, bnt the majority of office seekers
and politicians seem to take a delight in
showing up the political and personal
records of their opponents, and if there
areanv flaws they are sure to find them
and make the most of them lor political
purposes. Our experience is that it is
not the editors who lie as much as it is
the politicians and office seekers, who
endeavor to get campaign lies into the
newspapers. Mr Huston ought to know
that it is all fair in love, war and poli.
tics, but he must not blame the editors
if once in a while they are imposed upon
bv the politicians and at the same time
publish a whole lot of truth that office
seekers would prefer not being published
about them just previous to an election.
II the lew trivial matters which Mr.
Huston complain of are all that the
politicians could rake up against him in
a warm political race he ought to think
himself lucky, for, really, he must be an
exemplary citiz.cn anil with good traits
However, we hope the next time that
Mr Huston runs for office he will l>e suc
cessfid, and then he won’t feel so bad
with the editors. In the meantime, we
invite him to visit the Tillamook County
Fair with Bro. Hofer, who, it seems, is
the biggest sinner and needs baptizing it
he has has given Mr. Huston cause to
"beef”
